Vodoopskrba otoka Hvara

Objavljeno u Zdravlje

Iz povijesti: Izgradnju prvog javnog sustava opskrbe pitkom vodom iz izvorišta "Vir", prije 80 godina, vodio je tadašnji načelnik Općine Jelsa, gosp. Jure Duboković-Nadalini. Ovaj događaj obilježen je podizanjem česme na "pjaci" u Jelsi 1934. godine.

Books to Lighten the Heart

Objavljeno u Zdravlje

In the age before tablets, mobile phones, computers and televisions, many people used to read, and reading was a social asset. Yes, it is so. We who are old enough remember that there was a time, not so long ago, when these wonders of modern living did not exist. Children brought up in this age of instant communication across continents often wonder what we did with our time. One thing was reading. Books, newspapers, journals, magazines and comics were the main sources of passing the time pleasurably and/or educationally.

GMO, pesticidi i zdravlje u budućnost na Hvaru

Objavljeno u Zdravlje

“Mediteranska dijeta” se smatra iznimno zdravom, posebice u zaštiti protiv srčanih bolesti. To je prvi definirao Ancel Keys, koji je i osnovao Studij Sedam Država 1958., i govorio da se dijeta uglavnom temelji na biljkama. 4. Prosinca 2013, “Mediteranska dijeta” je upisana u UNESCOv Predstavnički Popis Nematerijalne Kulturne Baštine Čovječanstva, kao odgovor na zajednički zahtjev Cipra, Hrvatske, Španjolske, Grčke, Italije, Maroka i Portugala. Prvi trgovački genetski modificirani (GM) usjevi su posađeni u SAD-u 1994., s velikih razmjera sjetva GM sjemena od 1996 pa nadalje, uglavnom u SAD-u, Argentini i Kanadi. GM sjemenke su od tada agresivno promovirane diljem svijeta, izazvavški burne kontroverze.

Duhan, cigarete: izbacite ih iz života

Objavljeno u Zdravlje

Diljem Europe, čini se da je zabranjivanje pušenja na javnim mjestima reduciralo pojavu pušenja. Ipak, čini se ne u Hrvatskoj, najnovijoj ćlanici EU. Da, postoji zakon koji ograničava uporabu duhanskih proizvoda (Zakon o ograničavanju uporabe duhanskih proizvoda) i njegova najranija verzija iz 2008. ustanovila je se u obaveznom školskom programu djecu mora obavijestiti o opasnostima pušenja (članak 22).

  • UN warns world losing climate battle but fragile Cop30 deal keeps up the fight

    Reaching agreement in divisive political landscape shows ‘climate cooperation is alive and kicking’, says UN climate chief

    The world is not winning the fight against the climate crisis but it is still in that fight, the UN climate chief has said in Belém, Brazil, after a bitterly contested Cop30 reached a deal.

    Countries at Cop30 failed to bring the curtain down on the fossil fuel age amid opposition from some countries led by Saudi Arabia, and they underdelivered on a flagship hope – at a conference held in the Amazon – to chart an end to deforestation.

  • UK wildfires devastated more areas in 2025 than at any time since records began, figures show

    Firefighters call for long-term investment and say UK is dangerously underprepared as climate crisis worsens

    Wildfires have devastated more moorland, forests and fields in the UK this year than at any time since records began, putting huge pressure on the country’s fire service, figures show.

    The Global Wildfire Information System estimates that by November, wildfires had burned 47,026 hectares (116,204 acres) in 2025 in the UK – the largest area in any year since monitoring began in 2012, and more than double the area burned in the record-breaking summer of 2022.

  • Zombie fires: how Arctic wildfires that come back to life are ravaging forests

    Blazes that smoulder in the permafrost, only to reignite, are extending fire season though winter, leaving vegetation struggling to recover

    In May 2023, a lightning strike hit the forest in Donnie Creek, British Columbia, and the trees started to burn. It was early in the year for a wildfire, but a dry autumn and warm spring had turned the forest into a tinderbox, and the flames spread rapidly. By mid-June, the fire had become one of largest in the province’s history, burning through an area of boreal forest nearly twice the size of central London. That year, more of Canada burned than ever before.

    The return of cold and snow at the close of the year typically signal the end of the wildfire season. But this time, the fire did not stop. Instead, it smouldered in the soil underground, insulated from the freezing conditions by the snowpack. The next spring, it reemerged as a “zombie fire” that continued to burn until August 2024. By then, more than 600,000 hectares (1.5m acres) had been destroyed.

  • Search is on for the German hairy snail in London

    Conchologists, and citizen scientists team up to seek out endangered mollusc species along River Thames

    It is tiny, hairy and “German” – and it could be hiding underneath a piece of driftwood near you. Citizen scientists and expert conchologists are teaming up to conduct the first London-wide search for one of Britain’s most endangered molluscs.

    The fingernail-sized German hairy snail (Pseudotrichia rubiginosa) is found in fragmented patches of habitat mostly along the tidal Thames.

  • Another Cop wrecked by fossil fuel interests and our leaders’ cowardice – but there is another way | Genevieve Guenther

    The fingerprints of Russia and Saudi Arabia are all over the decision text in Brazil. But a group of nations led by Colombia and the Netherlands offer hope

    • Genevieve Guenther is the founding director of End Climate Silence

    The 30th conference of the parties (Cop30), the annual climate summit of all nations party to the UNFCCC, just ended. Stakeholders are out in the media trying spin the outcome as a win. Simon Stiell, climate change executive secretary for the UN is, for instance, praising Cop30 for showing that “climate cooperation is alive and kicking, keeping humanity in the fight for a liveable planet”. But let us be clear. The conference was a failure. Its outcome, the decision text known as the Global Mutirão or Global Collective Effort, is, in essence, a form of climate denial.

    In 2023, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) determined that the world had already developed, or planned to develop, too much fossil fuel to be able to halt global heating at 2C. It acknowledged that the capital assets built up around fossil fuels must be stranded – that is to say, abandoned and not used – if warming was to be limited to 2C. But the Cop30 decision text ignores all this. Indeed, it never even mentions fossil fuels.

  • How rolling sand dunes are creeping up on last remaining oases on edge of Sahara

    In western Chad, villagers are desperately trying to hold back the sand as the climate crisis wreaks havoc on one of the hottest countries in the world

    On the ochre sands of Kanem, the neat vegetable gardens and silver-green palm trees of Kaou oasis stand out, incongruous in this desert province of 70,000 sq km in western Chad.

    Oases such as this, on the edge of the Sahara, have sustained human life in the world’s deserts for thousands of years. Globally, an estimated 150 million people rely on the water, arable land and access to trade networks they provide. But in Chad, such oases are disappearing fast.

  • UK ‘most expensive place’ to build nuclear power, review finds

    Government panel’s final report calls for ‘radical reset’ of planning and environmental rules to get reactors built faster and cheaper

    The UK has become the “most expensive place in the world” to build a nuclear power station because of overly complex bureaucracy and regulation, according to a government review.

    The nuclear regulatory taskforce was set up by Keir Starmer in February after the government promised to rip up “archaic rules” and slash regulations to “get Britain building”.

  • ‘It’s hell for us here’: Mumbai families suffer as datacentres keep the city hooked on coal

    As Mumbai sees increased energy demand from new datacenters, particularly from Amazon, the filthiest neighbourhood in one of India’s largest cities must keep its major coal plants

    Each day, Kiran Kasbe drives a rickshaw taxi through his home neighbourhood of Mahul on Mumbai’s eastern seafront, down streets lined with stalls selling tomatoes, bottle gourds and aubergines–and, frequently, through thick smog.

    Earlier this year, doctors found three tumours in his 54-year-old mother’s brain. It’s not clear exactly what caused her cancer. But people who live near coal plants are much more likely to develop the illness, studies show, and the residents of Mahul live a few hundred metres down the road from one.

  • ‘We’ve got to find answers’: Corby families affected by cancer searching for truth about toxic waste sites

    Alison Gaffney believes her son’s rare leukaemia was caused by dumped toxic waste from the town’s steelworks

    Alison Gaffney and Andy Hinde received the devastating news that their 17-month-old son, Fraser, had a rare type of leukaemia in 2018.

    Two years of gruelling treatment followed, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy, before a stem cell transplant. Fraser, then aged three, made a “miraculous recovery” from the surgery, before doctors declared the cancer in remission.

  • How ambitious ‘forest city’ plan for England could become a reality

    Cross-party coalition behind proposals hope eco-friendly scheme for million people could begin before end of decade

    In the next few years, spades could be in the ground for a city made of wood, in the middle of the largest new nature reserve created in England in decades, with four-bedroom homes on sale for £350,000.

    It sounds too good to be true, but a cross-party coalition of campaigners is trying to make a “forest city” to house a million people a reality, with construction commencing by the end of this parliament. It would be the first such project in England since the purpose-built new town of Milton Keynes in the 1960s.
